hi, vmware upstream is not particularly good about keeping their kernel modules up to date with kernel upstream. people using the latest kernels generally use the vmware any-any kernel modules instead (which vmware-package will package), but in the case of 2.6.24 unfortunately the 'official' vmware any-any hasn't been kept up to date. please build vmware workstation without -k and see #462620 for the solution on building vmware modules for 2.6.24. -- Robert Edmonds [EMAIL PROTECTED]
